Re: Ignorance was bliss before the internet.

Dear Lorri,

<<I'm sorry it took them so long to dx you. That must have been

terribly frustrating for you.>>

Actually, it wasn't frustratong as I was first told I had a reaction

to bug bites and then another dr. told me I had phlebitis. I was 21

when I first got EN and there was no internet to look up medical info.

back then. By the time I was properly diagnosed I had figured out how

to treat myself without meds, so I was fortunate that way. I guess

" ignorance was bliss " . I had no knowledge of the many different

triggers and possible related disorders so I wasn't concerned. Life

was very different back before the internet.

Love,
